8 14 The figure below shows a picture of the Kerið crater lake, a 3,000 year old volcanic crater lake in South Iceland. The actual lake itself is relatively shallow. The water in the crater lake does not drain out but just rise and fall according to changes in the water level. As a result, the crater resembles a window on the groundwater. Jack would like to explore the possibility of having a water paddling zone for tourists during non-winter months. Hence, there is a need to find out the area of this Kerið crater lake. To approximate the area of the lake, he walks around the perimeter of the lake, taking the measurements shown in the illustration. Using the cosine rule on the three triangles shown, find the area of the lake, round off to nearest whole number. [6] 87 m 84 m 26 m 50 m 104 m 55O 80O A B C D E
